City of Fernley Community Engagement

Opportunities to Get Involved

2021 City of Fernley Virtual Citizens Leadership Academy

In the City’s commitment to public service, promoting citizen engagement, and open communication to its citizens, the City of Fernley partnered with the Fernley Chamber of Commerce to create, organize, and run an annual Fernley Citizen’s Leadership Academy.  The goal of the Citizen’s Academy is to teach the participants how the City of Fernley government is structured, how the departments operate, the programs and services the City provides, and give participants an opportunity to meet and discuss important City issues with staff and elected officials. The Academy is held annually early in the year at City Hall, where each class features a different department of the City of Fernley. Classes run 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm every Thursday for five weeks online.
